RAY McGUIRE CAMPAIGN FILES 18K PETITION SIGNATURES TO QUALIFY FOR THE DEMOCRATIC MAYORAL PRIMARY


Democrat Ray McGuire today filed more than 18,000 petition signatures to the Board of Elections to qualify for the June primary election ballot.

“We are now really at the start of this campaign and today's filing shows that New Yorkers are beginning to be engaged,” said Ray McGuire. “People from every borough and every neighborhood are responding to our message for the most inclusive comeback in New York City history. New Yorkers want a change from politics as usual and deserve a mayor who can truly lead our economic recovery; I will be that mayor.”

The campaign's 18,000+ signatures were collected from neighborhoods across all five boroughs without institutional support from clubs, unions or elected officials. Powered by a robust volunteer network with over 1000 volunteers and growing, #TeamRay petitioned from the South Bronx to South Jamaica, Queens and everywhere in between.
 

"Our team has been working diligently and safely to not only qualify for the ballot, but also to share Ray's message with New Yorkers, and it is resonating. We are building a true grassroots apparatus with New Yorkers who are eager for change. We're proud of what we've accomplished so far and look forward to moving into the next phase of our campaign," said Rasheida Smith, field director for Ray McGuire for Mayor.
